Background: Severe pulmonary infection is the primary cause of death in children aged < 5 years. The early identification of pathogenic bacteria and targeted anti-infective therapies can significantly improve the prognosis of children with severe infections. This study aims to provide a reference for the rational use of antibiotics at an early stage in children with severe pulmonary infections.

Background: Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are among WHO's priority pathogens with antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Studies suggest potential impacts of the COVID-19-pandemic on AMR. We described changes in AMR incidence and epidemiology in Germany during the COVID-19-pandemic.

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) have increased in the last decade. In low-income countries, colistin is considered a last resort antimicrobial to treat CPE infections, whose most worrisome mechanism of resistance is MCR-1 production. This study aims to understand the epidemiology of colistin resistance in CPE in the region, through the surveillance of the mcr-1 gene in CPE isolates in Ecuador.

The rise in antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to global health, particularly among diabetic patients who are prone to urinary tract infections (UTIs). Pathogens that cause UTI among diabetic patients exhibit significant multidrug resistance (MDR) patterns, necessitating more precise empirical treatment strategies..

Foremost in the design of new β-lactamase inhibitors (BLIs) are the boronic acid transition state inhibitors (BATSIs). Two highly potent BATSIs being developed are S02030 and MB076 strategically designed to be active against cephalosporinases and carbapenemases, especially KPC. When combined with cefepime, S02030 and MB076 demonstrated potent antimicrobial activity against laboratory and clinical strains of expressing a variety of class A and class C β-lactamases, including and .
